Melania: All of our memories are here in the album.
Melania: Do you remember this? Four years ago, we won our first trophy.
Ms. Acey: Sure.
Melania: Mainedonty ... the antique coin unearthed at the Maine site in 1957.
Melania: People only treated it as a quirky trinket, and a scribe got it for just a hundred pounds. It's probably the best deal he has ever made in his life ... Its mystery hasn't been solved by the arcanist academy so far.
Melania: In the early 1960s, it fetched a whopping £13,000 and was on exclusive exhibition at the Methodist Central Hall, Westminster.
Melania: This was where it all began. At that time, Ramirez had not been dissolved, and I was … just a student.
Disc of Turin
Iverson: Friends of the London security industry, I can now prove to you we are facing an unprecedented crisis.
Iverson: Just as The Times criticised, we are bamboozled by the flashy arcanum, and deceived by the so-called imagination of a security officer.
Iverson: We racked our brains to predict what the thieves were thinking, trying to keep up with their imagination.
Iverson: In the past five years, we almost turned security officers into thieves.
Iverson: But what have we achieved?
Iverson: Defeat! The Rimet Cup was replaced by a counterfeit during the exhibition!
Iverson: While exhibition security is just the most basic work of security!
Iverson: We concentrated too much on the show, on the cat and mouse game with the thieves. But we forgot our foundations: strict security checks, sound plans, and advanced equipment.
Iverson: The lost Rimet Cup was not only a failure of Ramirez, but a humiliation to the entire industry.
Iverson: Fortunately, it's all over now.
Iverson: Because we, New Humans Security, have recovered the real Rimet Cup!
Iverson: I, Iverson Edwards, solemnly declare. We will retrieve the tradition of rigour and rationality in the security industry, and bring it back to the path of rules and regulations!
Iverson: We will publish Guidance on Security. All the security flaws will be strictly checked! All the ways to commit crimes will be documented!
Iverson: The tragedy of the Rimet Cup shall not happen again! The grandstanding arcane security will be eliminated!
Iverson: We must save the industry from the humiliation of Ramirez!
The impassioned speech is not necessarily welcomed by some people. Say, the target of this criticism.
Melania: Ms Acey, why have you had the magazine? I haven't finished it!
Ms. Acey: Nonsense.
Melania: Are you worried about me? Trust me. I don't care anymore. At least the report represents what the public expects from the security business.
Fiennes: Glad to see you are still paying attention to the security business, Melania.
Melania: Mr. Fiennes ...!
Fiennes: Don't, just call me Uncle Fiennes like the old times.
Fiennes: Look at you! Last time I saw you, you were still a little girl. Now already a grown up.
Just like every relative you are not familiar with will do, the first thing he does is to take an awkward small talk.
Melania grasps the handle of her shoulder bag firmer.
Melania: I assume you're not here to catch up with me, are you?
Fiennes: ... Then I'll just come to the point, Melania.
Fiennes sits in front of Melania with a serious look.
Fiennes: I'm thinking that you can take over the Ramirez.
Fiennes: I know you've suffered tons of pressure after your father committed suicide...
Melania: ...
Fiennes: But, please listen to me, Melania. Ramirez needs you.
Fiennes: Our reputation collapsed after the Rimet Cup case.
Fiennes: I took over your father's place but can barely maintain the business. For the past six months, New Humans was taking absolute advantage and we cannot even compare to them.
Melania: People no longer trusted Ramirez, as was to be expected.
Fiennes: No, that's not the problem. We still have some regular customers who still trust us ...
Fiennes: It is the direction we lost.
Fiennes: Your father— he had a special style in the security field—unique may be the better word. After his death, no one can match his place in Ramirez.
Fiennes: We in no way will follow Iverson's style. That would smear Ramirez's reputation.
Fiennes: And you know that your father wanted you to be his successor...
Melania: Why not make a transformation, Mr. Fiennes?
Melania: As long as the exhibits can be guarded. Arcane security or traditional security, they're all the same.
Fiennes: ...Have you watched Iverson's speech? He said we are a humiliation.
Melania: Yes, I've read it all.
Melania: But you have to admit that part of Mr. Iverson's idea is correct.
Melania: Father never made any security plan, nor did he let anyone know what he was thinking. He just let the worst happen, and then miraculously caught the thief and recovered the exhibit.
Melania: It was thrilling, exciting, and full of drama. It made him a hero of the media.
Melania: But what if miracles don't happen every time?
Melania: What if we had registered visitors ... What if we had a sound security plan ... What if Father had not been so conceited about his imagination ... "Rimet Cup" wouldn't have been stolen!
Melania: And we wouldn't have to say these to his ashes!
Fiennes: Melania...
Melania: I'm sorry, Mr. Fiennes. That's too harsh.
Fiennes passed his handkerchief to her.
Fiennes: No ... I'm the one who reminds you of the sad things.
Fiennes: I know it's not for me to say this, but ...
Fiennes: As your father's friend and colleague for years, I'd like to say this for him.
Fiennes: Ramirez was everything to him. He didn't mean to put it in this way. It was his choice to survive.
Fiennes: I wouldn't put the pressure all on you.
Fiennes: Just ... your joining may bring us new energy.
Melania: Thank you for the afternoon tea.
Melania: But please forgive me for declining, Mr. Fiennes. I am not interested in the security business.
Melania stands up. It is the time to end this conversation.
Fiennes: ...
Fiennes: What if you are the one to lead Ramirez?
Fiennes: You can decide everything. Customers, orders, security plans and patrol route ... It's all your call.
Melania: No, Mr. Fiennes. This is crazy ... I'm still just a student ...
Fiennes: Melania, you are our last hope.
Fiennes: If you abandoned Ramirez too, Ramirez no longer has to exist. It's just some random traditional security business company like any other one, even the New Humans.
Fiennes: And your father's legend will fade with its reputation. Are you going to let this happen?
Fiennes: Let one failure defeat you forever. Never have the chance to rise again.
Melania: ...!
Fiennes: Melania, if you think your father made a wrong decision, then prove it. Prove you're different to him.
Fiennes: Prove that you can do better than him!
Fiennes: You will be the leader ... of the new Ramirez.
Ms. Acey: You never forget it.
Melania: Of course. I always remember what Uncle Fiennes said to me.
Melania: He really fulfilled his promise. I was the one to lead the new Ramirez.
Melania: It was a great time ... Wonderful, but short.
